Unfortunately, I haven't received any donations in two months, and today I desperately need to buy clean water for only $43.

Most #IT #software development efforts today rise to the level of mere craft, not art and certainly not #engineering. Sure, a small minority of projects do employ automated verification tools mechanically to fulfil the mathematical proof obligations. But even in such best practice processes, the human element is completely missing from the #verification chain.

If civil engineering were to employ the "software best practice" to a massive infrastructure project, say to build a bridge that spans a gorge, a gaggle of unlicensed practitioners—who neither studied civil engineering nor ever visited the construction site—would download a few cool-looking, open-source bridge designs from the web, 3D print those bridges across the divide, have their friends and families drive over them, reject the ones that collapsed and killed people, select the one that was left standing, then post hoc apply automated structural analysis tools to that design.

If "software engineering" is the goal, the first step that practitioners must take is to accept the mathematical proof obligations throughout the process, from requirements and feasibility studies, through specification and design iterations, to implementation and verification tasks. Thereafter, the software industry could proceed to talk about replacing those meaningless self-certifications with licensure under the law.

Of course, only life-critical applications demand ab initio mathematical formal methods, and licensing requirements apply only to the chief engineer and a handful of subordinate engineers who legally guarantee the quality of the work of the entire team. This is the same in other licensed fields, such as medicine, law, and engineering.

Anthropic has released no technical specification or detection tool for its watermarking system, leaving outside researchers unable to test its robustness. That opacity matters when ETH researchers cracked similar systems for under $50. https://www.implicator.ai/anthropic-eu-watermarking-claude-worldwide/ #AIResearch #Verification #OpenScience

Regarding the whole #age #verification push. At least to the people living inside the #EU I have a suggestion: instead of protesting, perform malicious compliance! You can bet on it to be implemented in the most haphazard ways imaginable, that also happen to be in violation of EU Customs Union single shared market law. Let them roll it out, then curb stomp using economic laws.

I'm currently faced with a bonkers stupid verification situation in Sweden. 🤪

What to watch: Moonshot claims K3 achieves 2.5x scaling efficiency gains via Kimi Delta Attention and Attention Residuals. When weights drop July 27, researchers can audit whether these architectural innovations account for the performance jumps or point elsewhere. #AI #OpenScience #Verification

It's been more than two months since I legally changed my name and Login.gov still refuses to recognize who I am... All of this verification is so that I can go present my license in person at the local post office. :facepalm:

It got really crazy over the last weekend when I got it to accept my ID... Only to get rejected at the post office because the Login.gov site was asking for an ID that never existed (the ID type was wrong and the expiration date was both wrong and impossible for the given ID type). :thisisfine:

I tried calling their 24x7 customer service but the only "service" they offer is to go over the troubleshooting steps on their knowledge base website. In the end, they told me that I would not be able to use their services at this time and that I should try ID.ME as an alternative. They also told me that I would just have to do all of my business at the local SSA office if I couldn't get the ID.ME alternative to work out. :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

Note: I didn't use ID.ME given it's private ownership and I didn't use the facial scan option because I've been trying to avoid that style of privacy invading tech. The "verify at the post office" option is the only real privacy preserving option that they offer.
